New #Heineken100 Clothing Collection Links With Influential Streetwear Shop
As the synergetic relationship between food and fashion (namely streetwear) becomes even more pronounced, so do the significant projects that come to fruition as a result. An excellent example of such would be Heineken beer’s #Heineken100 program. Now in it’s ninth year, the #Heineken100 program has been responsible for some of the coolest collaborations between the unlikely industries. This time around, Heineken extends its reach to one of the most influential clothing boutiques in the world, UNION, to create the “Green Collar” collection.
Taking heavy cues from workwear, the elevated interpretations of the “Green Collar” collection meet at the intersection of function and style. The results are six pieces, including a tiger camo chore coat, hoodie with dramatic, zippered side vents, and a pair of limited-edition Keds sneakers.
The “Green Collar” collection debuted this past Saturday, December, 1st, at UNION’s flagship location in Los Angeles, and their Tokyo, Japan location. Online launch is today, however, so for those that missed out at the physical store locations should make sure to cop quickly.
